I guess you also got a discount co the steering wheel is on the wrong side
Discovery 3/4 & RRS keys cut and programmed at your home or work
Apple CarPlay/ Android Auto retro fit - see it here
BAS Remaps/ EGR Blanking
Software updates/ enabling
Mobile Servicing & Repairs
Well....
The steering wheel is were it should be
Speaking about steering Wheel and interior.
I updated it with these:
And from Overfinch the steering Wheel from the Super Sport
It has the original look but is a bit chunkier and has a different shape for the thumbs.
Which in this case are up :thumbsup:

I decided that the plain Gold was a bit boring so I added some black vinyl.
And of course a roof rack.

Something quite nice about the look - a bit different with the Black stripe down the sides, but I think I like it
Carried out some major work there, I also like your workshop (Not jealous at all )
Shame about the steering wheel though Iggy/Ieuan

I´m also jealous about that workshop (not mine - the car dealers)
It would have made my next installation easier.

I replaced the broken front bumper with one with golden corners.

Also addad PDC in the front as I previously only had it in the rear.
